If they win this tie with the Portuguese giants, Vieira’s men will travel to Nyon in Switzerland to contest for a place in the final of the inaugural competition, dubbed the “mini Champions League”.

Those who turn up also will have the opportunity to win a number of amazing prizes, including a City shirt signed by the first-team squad, a City shirt signed by The Wanted’s Max George, a signed football, one of three copies of Xbox One game Plants versus Zombies, VIP Hospitality tickets to a first-team game and much, much more.

We're also happy to announce that the first 100 fans through the turnstiles will be given a free City scarf and we'll be giving away 20 Capital One Cup winners t-shirts to the crowd before kick-off.

Stewards will be on hand outside of the ground on the night to hand out free tickets to the game on a first-come-first-served basis , so make sure you get there early to guarantee your place at this historic occasion.

We’ll have video and text previews in the build-up to the game, as well as our usual Twitter updates, match report and match highlights here on mcfc.co.uk.
